This is what the Library is doing about the third issue you raised in last September’s Library survey:
that you need access to more computers to support study/research
- Student computers in the Library are supplied and funded by the University, rather than the Library. We will be meeting with IT Resources soon to discuss what might be done to address the survey results. Many of you used the anonymous survey comments section to tell us what you want and we’ll be using that information in our discussions.
- IT Resources are assessing the usage patterns of student computers so they can be located to best meed demand. Inveresk Learning Hub computers were rarely used and have already been relocated to the AMC and Launceston libraries.
- The Library plans to investigate establishing a pool of lendable laptops in the Library and will be assessing the feasibility, risks and costs involved.
Look out for part 4 of what we’re doing about the issues you raised in the Library survey – coming soon!
